Any interest in Josh Sitton? - Chezaugie - 02-28-2018
Bears just announced the release of OG Josh Sitton. I know he is 32 but still performs at a high level. Anyone think the Bengals would improve by signing him at a reasonable price?

Would love a iol of boling price and sitton. Can be had at around 6 million.

They need to find a spot for the young guards we have. We need to keep an eye out on OT's.

This
But still want Nelson or Wynn in draft if they are there at 12

I agree that the young OG on this team need to play and I fear if they sign a seasoned vet, they would sit Westerman and Redmond yet another year.
I also agree that if Nelson is there at 12 you grab him and see if Westerman can play Center.

This is not a fact, just an opinion.

Agreed, Guard is the least of our worries on the O-line right now. Need OT's and a decent Center.
We get one of these in FA and it opens up the Draft. Boobie Hart is not the answer.

The odds of Nelson making it to 12 are very, very low. The drafting Nelson ship sailed when the Bengals beat Detroit and Baltimore.

RG is still weak. 2 games is far too short of a time to make a solid eval. That said you are right, center is a dumpster fire, as is tackle.

Well, I am the King of the phrase "fresh legs syndrome", but I think Redmond just might have enough aggressiveness to handle the position. Time will tell the real truth, but the defenses he faced were no joke.
Either way, I'd like to see the team invest in either a Tackle, Center, and Guard, or two Tackles and a Center in free agency and or the draft.

Yeah, Redmond wasn't all that great against the Ravens either. Westerman was good both games though.
I like Redmond's size and aggressiveness, he likes to play physical. Westerman is much better techiniquely and is a great pass blocker.
We need a Center and Tackle as you say and it seems Pollack agrees from what he has said.

Definately need about 3 guys for Pollack to work with and Tackles and Centers are not dimes a dozens like Guards can be.
From what i got from Pollack he doesn't want to keep Boling at LT, he wants to get his own there. McGlinchey once again just makes the
most sense at 12. He is a plug and play LT and he is solid in every way but needs to work on some of his technique. Much better than
Connor Williams or the RT in every way pretty much.

Sitton would probably be the perfect signing.
1. Age and most recent performance should drive his price down to an affordable level.
2. He's 32. Not too old that he's washed up, but not so young that it'd drive his price up. He'd be more than capable of plugging that hole until the primes of Atkins, Dunlap, Green etc are spent.
This guy is a 4 time Pro Bowler (most recently in 2016), and he just battled through a couple injuries last year (including an ankle injury) which affected his performance. He's definitely someone we should look at. Sign Sitton, draft McGlinchey or Orlando Brown Jr and call it a day.

Agreed....putting your faith in unproven late draft picks is comical. Sign a proven vet.

and as evidenced, so is putting faith in early draft picks. The proud republic of Austria agrees with signing proven players.

I will literally take any warm body with starting NFL experience that has not been on the Bengals roster.

OK alright. Then I let Fisher finish off my faith.

LT is just a very tough and demanding job to master.
I wonder if switching him to Right might be an option at this stage in his career, especially if we Grab someone like McGlinchey to be the LT.

2nd round tackle. Anything that slips out of the 1st has serious flaws usually. Especially at that position.

Haven't we already tried moving him to RT?
Usually if a guy is up to snuff, he at least looks the part even as a rookie. It certainly doesn't take 4 years.
We should just move on from Ogbuehi, Fisher and Bodine. I know we're all used to the Bengals taking umpteen years to move on from shit players and coaches, but normal teams have a much quicker trigger.
